Stamps

Sadly yesterday's coffee and chocolate wasn't enough to get me back to work and I had to call in sick again today. My energy levels have dropped through the floor and I've spend most of today lying on the sofa feeling very sorry for myself. This afternoon, though, I decided to get out what was my grandpa's stamp collection and have a look through it. My grandpa gifted it to me on my 14th birthday as I was, and remain, interested in stamps. It's a treasured possession and I particularly like the fact that the album starts with a penny black and these penny reds. The handwriting on these envelopes is also fairly wonderful.
